Dickens's historical novel of the French Revolution, in a gorgeous new clothbound edition
After eighteen years as a political prisoner in the Bastille the aging Dr Manette is finally released and reunited with his daughter in England. There two very different men, Charles Darnay, an exiled French aristocrat, and Sydney Carton, a disreputable but brilliant English lawyer, become enmeshed through their love for Lucie Manette. From the tranquil lanes of London, they are all drawn against their will to the vengeful, bloodstained streets of Paris at the height of the Reign of Terror and soon fall under the lethal shadow of La Guillotine.

法國小說總是給人一種意猶未盡的感覺,為卡頓感到惋惜,希望狄更斯還有什麼伏筆,但故事已經講到瞭末尾。 最開始聽說《雙城記》,說是描寫法國大革命,但是讀完之後發現作者並沒有用大量筆墨直接敘述法國大革命的曆史,卻營造瞭大革命的氣氛,用仁愛化解仇恨,用人道化解暴力...
評分“我聽說你給釋放瞭,埃弗瑞濛德公民。我原先希望是真的。” “是真的。不過,我又給抓瞭迴來,還被判瞭死刑。” “要是我和你同坐一輛車的話,埃弗瑞濛德公民,你能讓我握著你的手嗎?我並不害怕,不過我又小又弱。握著你的手能給我增加勇氣。” 她抬起那雙善於忍受的大眼睛,...
評分狄更斯的此書最初讀到的隻是片段,後來找來完整的全書來讀,這也是很多年前的事情。過去多年之後,對於此書最深刻的印象卻不是關於主人公的愛情綫,而是那些關於法國大革命的背景描寫。書中的法國大革命似乎不同於我們曆史教科書的那場大革命,各種殘暴與死亡交織其中,這或許...
評分查爾斯·狄更斯(Charles Dickens)生於1812年,卒於1870年。《雙城記》(A Tale of Two Cities)發錶於1859年,是他創作成熟時期的代錶作之一。 《雙城記》在問世之甫即遭到種種奚落。有傳聞說狄更斯在閱讀《星期六評論》上對《雙城記》的抨擊之後,竟然昏迷不醒,臥病數月。...
評分“耶穌說,復活在我,生命也在我。信我的人,盡管死瞭,也一定會復活。所有活著信我的人,一定永生。” ——《聖經•新約•約翰福音》 可以毫不誇張地說,《雙城記》是第一部真正打動我的小說。那個行為不端、前途黯...
